Summary (from GoodReads.com)
Paradise wasn't supposed to suck.
Not the state of being, but a resort in the Caribbean.
Jena, Dakota, Skye, and Owen are all there for different reasons, but at Paradise their lives become tangled together in ways none of them can predict. Paradise will change them all.
Personal Thoughts
Hmmm. I wasn't sure about this one when I started. There's a fair amount of language (especially in Dakota's section) and a few lustful passages throughout. The story was well-written and brings everything together nicely, but wasn't contrite. Middle schoolers probably think and speak the way the characters in the book do, but it's a little raunchier than the books I normally go for. Due to some of the more mature scenes, I would say this is more of an 8th grade book.
